Video Games.
They're essentially the same game, so yes... Simple mistake when I don't particuarly care for either series...Point still stands, but we don't know if it's EA or Game's fault here... It's well-known that game companies want to remove the trade market from the industry, but on the other hand, Game have been renowned for being a bit awful too...Oh wells, someone will pick it up if Game die...

Game shooting themselves in the foot, considering EA have some of the biggest players in the general gaming market (Fifa and Call of Duty)...Dear oh dear...

And it's great to see that they're celebrating the year with a FANTASTIC addition to the park!

Surely it's no worse than what we see on the Facebook pages?

I do know why rides break down, evidently even adding a wink smiley at the end of a joke doesn't mean crap...I've worked with a few of the rides at the park, and some rides are just really awful system wise, regardless of any external or internal issues... Truckers springs to mind...So yeah, thanks for the lecture that wasn't needed, most people on here understand the basics...

Explains why the ride systems are so bad then

Maybe so, but Bendy Buses were bloody awful in a road use sense...

THE SWARM: Construction Updates
And Saw broke down on every single one of those days...Also, the weather will affect the queues let's not forget, Thirteen's opening was an absolute wash-out for the park due to the rain and the Uttoxeter derby... Combine that with throughput over the expected, and it ended up with 20 minute queues later on in the day...Of course, Swarm will probs have more people re-riding it (but maybe about the same amount disappointed ) throughout the day, but the simple loading should make it a relatively easy day on queues...

This could be said for most rides tbh...

THE SWARM: Construction Updates
It would be a bit dumb if B&M had such a flaw...The answer is of course, no, the angle in the photo is the issue here, making it seem like less material than the actually is... Let's not be so silly as to think that people would be able to touch the track whilst on the ride, any good design team will have sorted that first and foremost...

Storm Surge
The whole ride just shows what happens when a park puts in zero effort into adding a ride... In a way it actually looks WORSE than any car park coaster, which is quite an achievement...Just goes to show that sometimes, it's just not worth adding a new ride...

The turn looks like a more epic version of Apollo's Chariot's one...DO WANT! But it means going to awful Salou

27k is bloody good tbh... Could easily live off that...Better than the average 16k most graduates seem to go and do... Maybe I'm ruling out that too early?

Only cos I'd been the inside a few times already and was bored of being there

THE SWARM: Construction Updates
Just noticed the extremely blaise face on the red haired girl...Blates part of the ECC...Also, both inside and outside seats will be good... There's no need to only dedicate yourself to one set (or side for that matter)...

Port Aventura
That turn is going to be amazing <3

Air
The idea behind Air's theme is quite good actually, and suits the ride pretty well as it is not along the lines of Nemesis, and it allows it to have it's own relative identity within the park...Unfortunately, the budget dying due to the ride system rather than anything being cut, meant that it didn't get brought out as well, hence the concrete tunnel of bright lights we have today...I like Air, seem to be one of the few enthusiasts at times that actually does... Though I never knew it could go even slower than normal until Sunday

That's just the Hospitality Suite isn't it? Nothing really special about it, although why Towers and Thorpe don't hide or theme them from the outside I'm not sure...
